Going back to the 40s and 50s bobber era shows how the company thinks: they've done the 20s and 30s with various Heritage softails in the 1990s, and now their aging customer base can remember the bikes they never had in the 40s - so here's one. If we wait a while they'll do the 60s and 70s again and I can buy the XLCR I missed the first time.. But maybe not.

ARRGH ME BUCKOS! It's a two wheeled Pirate's Treasure from your mateys at Harley Davidson. Find ye a treasure map to yer nearest Harley Davidson dealer, and dig up yer booty with the Crossbones Cruiser. Put your scabbard in yer sheath, powder in your pistols, and ride the Seven Seas in style. The wenches will be bringin the grog, and the pillaging will be rich, as soon as you're pirate's flag is raised. ARRGH!

For those of you having a hard time raising your pirate's flag HD now offers their own line of Viagra.

I personally wouldn't want the ape hangers. But that seat is the quintessential cruiser seat. I've always liked the look of the old cruisers better than the new ones, and the seat's a big reason why. New skool reliability (including fuel injection) with old skool looks. Works for me.

Don't need that big a bike, though. Order me up an all blacked out Nightster with better shocks, triple disk brakes, the bigger gas tank (3.3 gallons is ludicrous), and that seat, and I'll be good to go.
